The morning you least wanted to get up is the one that proved you would.

Evidence about yourself only gets produced under conditions you would not have chosen. On easy mornings, getting up tells you nothing, because anyone can. The one where you genuinely did not want to and did it regardless is the only kind that settles the question. That is why hard stretches stay in memory as proof while comfortable ones blur together.

When you catch yourself doing something you did not feel like doing, mark it somehow. A note, a tick, anything you can look back at. Doubt about yourself gets answered with records rather than with feelings.
